Hello everyone
I can't figure out how to get tag from 6H10D RFID Reader.
Plugging 6H10D RFID Reader to Computer using USB prints value in any word documents.
But when i connect it to Arduino it stops sending data.
So i monitored port on Windows 7 using Device Monitoring Studio.
There so many communication going only after connecting device to computer.
_URB related communicatoins.(Included picture of Device Monitoring Studio process pictures and my connections picture.)
J1 to computer* and J2 to 6H10D RFID reader.
And here is the code:
int incomingByte =0;// for incoming serial data

voidsetup(){
Serial.begin(9600); // opens serial port, sets data rate to 9600 bps
}

voidloop(){

// send data only when you receive data:
if(Serial.available()>0){
// read the incoming byte:
incomingByte =Serial1.read();

// say what you got:
Serial.print("I received: ");
Serial.println(incomingByte,DEC);
}
}

 

I don't think that you will be able to use a Mega as a USB host - at least not in any practical sense. There may be some Arduino boards that have that ability (the old Mega ADK, as I recall), but not the Mega. I could be wrong though.

There are shields available to do this e.g., https://www.sparkfun.com/products/9947 https://www.circuitsathome.com/arduino_usb_host_shield_projects/ or build your own using a MAX3421E.

Google Arduino as USB Host.
